That Time Warrior watch is a grail piece for me. I mailed away for it as a kid. Wore it into oblivion and would love to have it in my collection again. I never see them in the wild, let alone in prestine mint condition. Fantastic find! Thanks for sharing!
Im really enjoying this channel I only discovered it this week since then im binge watching every episode good stuff 👍 Please feature more GI Joe the 12 inch version or any UK Action man you stock Personally im a UK Action man collector 👍
currently working on creating an obscure line myself. hoping to be done by the end of the year! i don't think m.u.s.c.l.e. was obscure but i loved 'em...
I'm so glad people keep their ThunderCats! I never see them on the show that much! When I was a kid that THUNDER THUNDER THUNDERCATS HOOOOOOO! Always got me!
There was a line called action force, which was British gi Joe I fhink... anyway they had amazing figures I used to buy lots from a 99p bin so cheap and I just loved them to bits
I have a complete, loose G1 collection, but the allure of boxed figures continues to heavily tempt me. It's always just been a lack of expendable cash obstacle for me. I've collected TFs since 1999, and they've always been too expensive for me. MAN, those you got in are so nice! Shame about the Robot Points, but that Tume Warrior is worth it. Honestly, at this point, id just like to have the instruction booklet for one. Ive got a few weird irems, like the Tyco train, but the Time Warrior itself was never for me, really. I still really appreciate what it is, though.
Ryan, I owe you a hand from Gamer Edition Sideswipe. When I brought it in it was in alt mode. It must of fell out when I was packing the tubs. I'm so sorry, I'm so ashamed of myself. I've made a couple deals with y'all and you guys are great. The fairest and best toy store in the state. I'm In Anderson, if I can make it in today in time i will but if not ill take Monday off to bring you the hand. I know how important it is for the figure to be complete,(you can't resell a bot with a missing hand!). I'm so very, very, sorry. It's my mission to get you that hand. If I wasn't dusting and rearranging this morning while watching your UA-cam video I would of never even seen the hand. Again, I'm so dang sorry. I hope you see this. I feel like a complete doofus. I checked everything the night before it just must of fell out and rolled into the back of one of my shelves. I WILL GET YOU THAT HAND RYAN!!! I'm ashamed and embarrassed.
I am not a toy collector, but I had some of these as a kid, and I am drooling. I don't think I could resist tearing these out and playing with them. I want that Soundwave. Loved that guy.
I originally found out about Toy Federation from watching Froggy Flips. I found out about Froggy Flips when he was mentioned on national radio in the UK (BBC Five Live)! Why do I love these videos so much though - I don't collect toys at all. Any chance we'll ever see Ryan's personal stash?
THE CLEANEST STUFF I HAVE EVER SEEN!!!! SO COOL WHAT YOU GUY'S GIVE US FAN'S!!! THANK YOU ALL 4 EVERYTHING YOU ALL DO!!!!! CAN'T WAIT 4 THE NEXT ADVENTURE!!!❤😂👍🤎🫶🤙🙏🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖
God, realizing I had most of those and trashed them or just threw them away! FFS hindsight is a bitch! Then again, realistically, it would've been extremely weird, if I just kept them all pristine in a box! Omega Supreme though, I miss that one!
Yea I was at the toy show in Anderson. Saw the guy there with all the transformers. At first I was like no, gotta be fake cause of how clean and crisp the boxes were. Never have I've seen them in this condition anywhere. But as I was talking to the guy for a bit, I was convinced that they were legit. I did get his Jetfire though. It was the cleanest boxed I've ever seen! I also seen his mail aways. Ryan I almost got that watch but I've spent my limit on Jetfire. So you welcome...lol!
What do i do if i wanted to sell my entire collection from a child n im 42 now buuut i live in miami?????? Its time to let get n yes boxed but most loose?????

I'm a bit confused. When the POP is cut out does that essentially make it "Mint loose with box" even if it has all the inserts and paperwork and hardly ever been played with (if at all) and has excellent boxes? Meaning - the tape seal and POP is "the money?" regardless if other qualities don't match up - say a worse box/but is has the POP and ragged yellow tape barely holding it together at this point. If I were buying this stuff I'd want the mint toy I could remove and display in front of the almost mint box (considering age) without the POP.
Not to mention just the experience of going to an actual giant toy stores that don't exist anymore. Going to KB toys or toys R us was like going to Wonka chocolate factory.
It's a damn shame kids these today only know like 3-5 half isles in Target or Walmart. I remember walking in toys R us holding my mom's hand thinking it will take me years to get through the entire store lol floor to ceiling wall to wall toys, for miles. It felt like the shelves were 50 stories high lol.
If 1 person want a piece and is willing to pay say 150, that doesn't make it worth 150. It was worth that to the 1 buyer. Vintage toy value is only what a collector is willing to pay.
@akamalo661.....thats 100% correct ...these youtube channels have really hurt the market for anyone looking for reasonable prices ...... But really you never see anyone in their videos buying anything they just have hoards of stuff on the shelf and back room they can't sell😂😂😂😂
Yea they are pretty good. I bought a set of those KO's. Not because I want to scam anyone but its the only way to really get them at a reasonable price to display in my office in perfect grade in box.
Usually the proof of purchase from that item or a combination of the same toys you had to send into to redeem bonus items free with your proof of purchase. Some of this redeem items are also very hard to find and are very cool adding to your overall collection.
@@Austuber Thanks. I thought they were probably for mail away exclusives. Yet I still don't understand why the kids did not open the toys to play with them. Seems strange that way even if the parents were buying stuff for their kids that they were not allowed to open but cut out the pop for a mail away item.
@@MisterJ.J. You are probably right there also, different toy/collectable company did both at times, im in Australia and most here especially trading cards also you either got some free bonus items/cards or you could buy extra items at reduced prices, like trading cards folders hence some folders very hard to find here now so you are right also. I’m guessing they brought them to collect and decided to get the extra item/bonus as it looks like they cut the coupon out fairly well not damaging rest of packaging from what I can see. Where you had to buy like a full set of toys etc, made the redeemed item harder to find now as only collectors would have had full sets to redeem against one off maybe gift/birthday purchases and some didn’t get redeemed etc as package was opened and binned without seeing offer possibly. Anyway always nice talking to fellow collector, hope I help a little hi from Australia, and god bless Amercia.
@@Austuber Thanks. My wife and I are serious toy collectors. I'm mainly collect Star Wars action figures and vehicles of course lol. Also, thank you for stating God bless The U.S.A. That means a lot. May God please bless Australia too! 🙏🇺🇲❤️🇦🇺

Love this show. I collect toys, but mine are much older from the 50s and 60s. But it's not Saturday without a dose of Toy Federation.
wow yours are much older, nobody cares
Do you have many GI Joe ?
I'm a UK Action man collector myself
@@YouSoundButtHurt obviously you don't care 😂
@joeblogs-vx4ep just one from long ago. He's put away, but if I recall, he's a soldier
@@YouSoundButtHurtyour mammy sux ma jammy
I absolutely love boxed G1 Transformers, the combo of toy and packaging is amazing, up their with Kenner Star Wars and 80s GI Joe
You do realize that Toy Federation is the Saturday Morning Cartoon for Grown Ups now, right?
Best part of waking up in toy federation in my cup
Those are some very nice Transformers.The boxes look really good minus the cutouts.
The guy in the white, tan and blue plaid shirt seems like a genuinely nice person.
U never know. Jarrod from subway commercials ended up being a c.p.
Hahhahahahahhahh
Wow
@@jamespang8279, that’s uncalled for.
Love to see another Robotech fan!
Thanks guys. Always love new episodes!
You know you were a Spoiled kid when your Mom...fly's to another state, to buy you a Christmas gift!!!

Love the Transformers. Yeah that Soundwave is so good.
Love these guys and their mindset!! Bucket List #1 check out Toy Federation irl.☝🏼💯

G1 awesomeness
I’ve definitely hidden the toy I wanted at the back of a shelf hoping the next time came into the store it would be there to buy
I always look from the back to the front. Then top to bottom. Then behind the bad toys no one cares about.
Wow what an amazing transformers lot. I never see boxed stuff in my area
Those G1’s are soooo clean. Bugger the proof of Purchases they look absolutely minty.
Right!?
Centurions!!
My man name dropped warriors of virtue. That was my favorite toy line that I ever had.
Morning Everyone
Man I love this channel. Plays in my house 24/7 😂
The only channel I proposely have notifications on. 😂❤
As soon as you said mail away i knew it was the watch
I had a case fresh ultra magnus and sold it in 2001 for $150, but that’s what it was worth back then!
What a nice and a good guy, who just wants to exchange some figures :)
So glad I stumbled upon this channel. Love hearing all the stories and seeing the boxed items. Good job Toy Fed!
Exosquad squad!!!
let's go!
Hey ho!!
currently working on creating an obscure line myself. hoping to be done by the end of the year! i don't think m.u.s.c.l.e. was obscure but i loved 'em...
Go for it!
@@toyfederation thanks for the encouragement!
The superion box looks like a ko from temu or alliexpress😆
Wow, super clean
I'm so glad people keep their ThunderCats! I never see them on the show that much! When I was a kid that THUNDER THUNDER THUNDERCATS HOOOOOOO! Always got me!
And one of the best Cartoon Intros of all time in my opinion!
PIRATES OF DARK WATER!!!! ❤️🔥
There was a line called action force, which was British gi Joe I fhink... anyway they had amazing figures I used to buy lots from a 99p bin so cheap and I just loved them to bits
Centurions and Construx
Love the minty g1’s . Any for sale ?
The 90s Kenner CARZILLAS line was my favorite as a kid.
Cadillacs & Dinosaurs!!!!!!!
Love the content! I’m a little late to this but Mego Eagle Force was a line that I loved as a kid.

I’m adding to the personal stash request - that would be amazing 👍
I love when all my favorite toy hunters appear on other channels. It's like the Multiverse.
@@joseortega7815 😀
I am shocked he could keep the boxes in such excellent condition.
It only took keeping them packed away in cardboard boxes and in my bedroom closet for 40 years…😎🤣

I trust you guys ? Did he really say that ? Wow lol
Every time I see Megatron in box I think of that childhood memory. Why didn't you buy it for me mom??? 🤬
Troll comment and shit posts are increasing, you know you have made it
All Transformers figures 😮😮
love seeing that big trade shopping spree!!! :D
“Box and catalogue it in the summer, sell it in fall” that old ToysRUs training video is as true now for eBay as back in the 90s
Mind blown 🤯
I love Monster Force.. and so happy it’s not to crazy in price. I can get the whole line without breaking the bank 😆🙌🏽
To understand correctly. He cut the proof of purchases off n sent them in to receive the watch.
Edits--cut back to Ryan going on about Transformers. I love it, but its kind of funny.
Toy Federation have any Madballs??
We’re over here losing our sh*t over trading these minty G1 for the random 90s stuff lol. To each their own of course but man I’m dying lol
I Know G1 because I'm G1
Amazing show
Thanks
Was the aggregate loss in value from removing the proof of purchases equal to the value of the mail aways? (as of today) Was it worth it?
Ive been to this store
10yr old me cut the points off Prime so that I wouldn't cut up 4 other backing boards. As a kid I wasn't thinking of the value 40 yrs later.
Hey, how much for that classified Serpentor?
Thank god i was not first, the thrist is real and i am a class act.
I’m not familiar with this, why was the proof of purchase cut out?
For the mail in watch
God, realizing I had most of those and trashed them or just threw them away! FFS hindsight is a bitch! Then again, realistically, it would've been extremely weird, if I just kept them all pristine in a box! Omega Supreme though, I miss that one!
I love it. cheers for the great content
Need that sweater!
Cool.
That smile at 3:20 is when he knew he got over on him and was bout to make money …

That’s what we like to
@toyfederation toys then straight over to the podcast .watching now same routine every Saturday night it's almost 1am here in belfast lol

Does Ryan text, “yea yea” or just say it. Hmm
Oh man boxed G1 transformers sweeeet!! You guys rock another awesome!! video #norepos
Thanks so much!
Guy’s mom flew to another state for a Christmas present…all I ever wanted was for my mom to smoke outside.
You guys got me through 17 days isolated in bed. Have now started my own channel. Inspired.
I liked Battle Beasts. Not sure how obscure that is though. Oh, and the little pink wrestler guys. What were they called again?

Thanks for the reply and info 💪
Those G1 Transformers look too good to be true! Are you certain those aren’t re-issues?

Hi, how do I get in touch with you? I collect G1 and I’m interested in buying some of these…thanks!
Just come into the store!
@@toyfederation thanks for taking my call Travis!!!
I don’t know why would the proof of purchase be cut out.what would be the purpose of that. Looks like cleanly cut out but why
Watch the video through to the end. It was for a mail away item :)
Later in the video it explains why: He sent the proof of purchases away to get a limited edition transformers watch from Hasbro
early versions of prime are worth move , like bloated fists etc
The prowl inside the box is a reissue. The rub sign in the original wasn’t placed there
what kid of the 80s didnt beg mom or dad for that ONE toy we needed...
Not to mention just the experience of going to an actual giant toy stores that don't exist anymore. Going to KB toys or toys R us was like going to Wonka chocolate factory.

Why would someone cut out the PoP?
To get the watch.
Yes, to get the watch
Used to be if you collected enough proof of purchases you could send in for special items. A practice that waned in the 90s
I’m curious if they have Alexa, maybe someone hacked it if they do. Other than that I got no explanation
